It has been a week and so far the project files that I uploaded in the SF Multimedia Forum have not appeared. If anyone is interested in the TIE and TIE/In project files that I created and is willing to incur the e-mail charge, let me know and I'll send you the file. It will be in the PC format using PKZip 2.04G. There is a readme file describing the directory structure included in the SEA file. Michael S. Flynn

Michael, It took my basic ship .TGA's 2 1/2 weeks to show up… Yours will probably show here in a few days (weeks)…<G> Did you get a confirmation message after uploading to the section… If so, it is probably there waiting to get confirmed or something… Maybe the sysop was on vacation or something… Christopher Hoffman

Christopher, I check every day to see if the file is there, but it is almost two weeks and it hasn't shown. If it isn't there in another week or so, I'll just have assume that the Sysops rejected it for their own arbitrary reasons. Michael S. Flynn

Mike, SysOps don't reject anything. Drop a note to Jenee Burns [70007,3367] and ask what happened..She usually notifies uploaders if there was a problem. If the file is accepted it happens in one to two business days. Bruce Herzog Graphics Forum Staff NY 08-Dec-94 at 7:28a DST

It could be that since this is a relatively new forum… Things don't process as rapidly as the other forums… But if you look at the date-submitted on my ship file, you'll see when I submitted it, and it just showed up this Monday or Tuesday… Hmmmm…. Christopher Hoffman

I did say "usually"…sometimes the load is so great that Jenee can't do it all in just two business days. Bruce

Christopher, >>It took my basic ship .TGA's 2 1/2 weeks to show up… Wow, 2 1/2 weeks, thats strange. It took my upload only a few days. BTW, what is next for your ship. Are you going to add image maps to the surface, etc… ? Chris

You hit it right on the head…!<G> I bought Paintbrush 5.0+ (Hey, it was cheap…<G>), to help with some of the image map creation… Currently I am working on the Hull tiling effect that you see in the shows and in the movies… I'm thinking that this can be done using A) Specteral (sp?) maps and/or B) Bump maps… Has anybody tried this? If so, what did you use? I am also going to add to the design… I think it looks so mundane… Too peaceful… It needs Phaser banks and Torpedo bays… <BG>!!! Christopher Hoffman
